It reported to the Congress that the Alliance did exist, and its rules
were contrary to the nature of the International. The Congress would resolve
to expel Bakunin (24 votes for, 6 against, 7 abstentions) and Guillaume
(25 for, 9 against, 8 abstentions) and voted against expelling Schwitzguebel
(15 for, 16 against, 7 abstentions).

After Cuno's departure for America, and Lucain's death, the task
of drawing up the final report on the Alliance fell to the commission engaged
in editing the minutes of the Hague Congress -- Marx, Engels, Le Mossu,
Frankel, Dupont and Serraillier. The main task was taken up by Marx and
Engels, with substantial assistance from Paul Lafargue. The commission
started compiling the report in April 1873 and in August in was published
as the pamphlet The Alliance of Socialist Democracy and the IWMA.
